How well does the jacket pack down. I am thinking about using this piece of clothing for late fall and early winter bicycle riding.

William, Thanks for your question. The Sub Zero SL Hooded jacket from Mountain Hardwear will pack down some, but it is not really your most packable option in my opinion. If you are looking for a down or synthetic insulated item for your purposes, I would check out the Nitrous Down Jacket, the Zonal jacket, or Zonal 1/4 zip pullover. All of these are lightweight, with great warmth to weight ratio's, and much more packable than the Sub Zero SL. I hope this is helpful for you.
